::new(p) Foo;

[Maarten L. Hekkelman]

Can anyone explain to me why this code generates a Privilage violation when
executing the new operator?

#include <Pilot.h>
#include <new>

void Foo ();

class Bar
{
public:
    Bar () : mValue (0) {}

private:
    long mValue;    
};

void Foo ()
{
    Bar **b = (Bar**)::MemHandleNew(sizeof(Bar));
    ::MemHandleLock((VoidHand)b);
    ::new(*b) Bar;
    ::MemHandleUnlock((VoidHand)b);
}

I really thought this was valid code...
